It's going to be VERY tough for us to get a kid from Avery Johnson and Bruce Pearl's back yard. They have been crushing recruiting; the W's just haven't caught up yet.
I watched Mountain Brook in the State Finals last year (Wife's cousin was a PG on the team). I thought he looked like a pro prospect, but was too lazy to look him up. Ball hoggin' like crazy but was easily the best player on the court.
Easy there, I believe the politically correct terms are "high usage" and "volume scorer".
Here is a pretty good article about Tyson. http://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/high-school/article112945398.html
Hate to say it but he looks like a typical Duke player.

Great student with 4.6GPA- check
More athletic than you think-check
Father was a player- check
Grown a bunch lately- check
Getting strongewr and tougher- check
Best shooter coach has ever seen- check
Supreme Gym Rat- check
Caucasian with shooting/size combo- check
Oh yeah, this guy is going to Duke (if they offer)

Apparently, John Newman impressed scouts at the loaded Josh Level Classic. Sounds like he is legit.
